Chapter 50: Helping and Planning

"And that's how it is."

I look at the people from the KHR universe and watch their expressions change. I decide to wait for Byakuran to invite Verde and Viper before I decide to explain the situation. When they arrive, I decide to tell them about the power of the staff.

"However, it comes with a huge risk. If someone accidentally makes a wish while holding the staff, it will be a problem."

Reborn says with a serious expression. Verde nods his head in agreement and says.

"Reborn is right. Creating a container that is not permanent and contains that large amount of energy will create a bomb instead of a container."

And he is right. Wait! We can do that.

"Can you guys locate Talbot? He has the solution to our problem."

Byakuran looks at me and says,

"What kind of solution can he make, brother? Even I cannot create something to break the curse of Arcobaleno. I can only make sure the pacifier cannot go to the next generation."

"Eh? Even your alternate self?"

"No. None of them manage to create something to take care of the curse."

Wait. The Curse of Rainbow Arc happens when Tsuna manages to defeat Byakuran in the future, right? That means that Byakuran never encounters reality where the curse is finally broken.

"Right. Talbot can create a special container that can contain a tremendous amount of flame that can prevent your planet from being destroyed."

Reborn looks at me and says.

"Are you sure this will work?"

"It should be. It is happening in the Prime Timeline."

"Eh?"

Ah, crap. I cannot escape this. I release a sigh and say.

"Before you guys say something, I know your world from my power. After a certain amount of time and training, I will receive the power of someone. The first one is that I have gained power in Byakuran. The one from the Prime Timeline where Tsuna defeats him in the future."

"Dame Tsuna defeat Byakuran?"

"Believe it or not, yes. With his element's help and the support from the Vongola Primo, he defeated Byakuran."

To my surprise, Reborn only nodded his head.

"Has he already met Primo?"

"Yes. He told me about it, and I know what you say is true."

He looks at me with a knowing look, and I know that he also sees through my words. He knows that I only tell them half-truths but decides not to ask me about it.

"Anyway, we can ask Talbot to create a container to contain the Flame, but to make it work, you need someone's help. Someone dangerous."

"Who?"

"Bermuda von Veckenschtein, the leader of the Vendicare and the holder of the Flame of Night."

At the mention of Vendicare, the others look down, and some even shudder. Yeah. In the KHR world, they are known as the enforcers. They are the police of the mafia. They are the best of the best, and even Vongola, the strongest family, fears them enough not to cause any problems.

"Oh! Bermuda-chan! I will ask him!"

Except for one person. In a lot of fan fiction, Byakuran is known as the friend of Bermuda. Or at least someone who often visits them enough to annoy Bermuda. It looks like this version of Byakuran is among them.

"Viper-chan! You will be the one to locate Talbot!"

"Time is money, and I don't work without compensation."

Without saying anything, I put a briefcase on the table and opened it.

"These golds are your payment. I will give you another briefcase full of gold after you bring Talbot here."

The briefcase disappears before I can even blink, and the Mist Arcobaleno floats in the air.

"Time is money. I will leave first and locate the target."

And they are gone. Oh, well.

"I think we should go as well. We will prepare for this project."

Reborn gets up and also leaves my office. Aria looks at me with a smile and says.

"Thank you, Vale. Truly, Thank you."

I return her smile and say.

"You are welcome."

When I leave my office, I look to the side and see Ambrosius enjoying the dessert the maid brings.

"Oooh~ This Vanilla Custard Cake is also delicious!"

He has a sweet tooth, huh?

"Huh? What? It has been hundreds of years since I ate anything sweet!"

Ah, he noticed me, huh?

"Really? What are you doing when you are staying inside the staff?"

"I usually sleep."

"Other than that?"

"Counting the stars, I guess."

What a miserable life.

"Why don't you leave that place?"

"And go where? I cannot leave the vault, you know? I can leave the staff, but I cannot leave the vault."

"That is… What kind of person traps you there?"

"A good person with good intentions but bad too tired of living. He wants to protect the world and chooses to hide me away in a pocket dimension. I understand why he does that, and that is why I don't hate him. None of us hate him for trying to save the world."

I nod my head in understanding.

"Fair enough. So! What do you want to do now?"

"Eh? You are willing to let me do anything I want, Valerian?"

"Of course. Why would I keep you inside all the time? You are you. I will not forbid you from doing whatever you want to do."

I look at him with a sweet smile while releasing a small bit of killing intent.

"However, make sure not to cause any problem, okay?"

"Of course~ I will be a good boy."

"Right."

After saying that, Ambrosius left the office to do whatever he wanted to do and left me alone in my office. After hearing how Ambrosius talked about being unable to get out of the vault, my desire to collect the Staff of Creation grew.

However, each time I needed to do it, I had to ensure that Atlas landed safely and without any victims. To compensate for it, I will search for a way to kill an immortal being like Salem. There must be something that lets me kill her in this world.

"Boss. We are back."

I look at my elements and say.

"Take a seat. I need something I want to discuss."

They sit on the couch, and I look at Luca.

"Luca, do you know if the president of Romania knows about this side of the world?"

"Do you mean if he knows the supernatural world?"

"Yes."

"He is aware of it. Each president knows about the supernatural world."

"And he is not helping against the Vampire?"

"Because he knows that it is futile, boss. Mundane weapons can hurt vampires with correct ammo, but the human body cannot keep up with the weakest vampires. They cannot see well in the dark, and they cannot notice vampires that use shadow as a cover. It is easier to let the vampires do whatever they want to do and keep the power than trying to hunt down the vampire and try to explain the reason why the soldiers die by the thousand."

That is fair. I nod and say.

"Right. I am asking you because I want to know if we can create an agreement with the president to produce unlimited clean energy for the entire country. Using the Staff of Creation, we can create a plant that can produce unlimited energy for the entire country."

"That is… possible. I can ask around for someone who can connect us to the president. It is a good way to gather steady income and receive a connection to the high-ranking people in the mundane world."

Luca nods his head and says.

"I will ask around, boss."

"Good. However, before we do that, we need to create a heist."

I lean forward and say.

"I want to gather all four relics in the RWBY world."
